For anyone interested I contacted IGFA about records and Bream and the response as follows.
If neither of the species have not been submitted to the IGFA they are both eligible for an all tackle record but not eligible for line class fly tippet or junior record only all tackle record. To be eligible for all tackle record the fish must be heavier than 0.453 kg 1lb and is 50% heavier than the respective species maximum body weight, for example if the maximum weight of the species is 10kg to get the record it must be 5kg heavier, you can find the maximum weight at www.fishbase.org if the maximum weight is not available the same rule applies to maximum length. I think impossible going off fishbase records but a bit confusing and not 100% clear, for example Max weight recorded on fishbase for Yellowfin Bream is 4.5kg so I think to get the record the fish would need to be 50% heavier than that?

i think they have stuffed up their wording on that reply, i would have thought they would have meant that the fish would have to be atleast 50% of the maximum known weight to obtain the record. eg, for yellowfin bream max weight 4.445 kg, to obtain a record min weight 2.223 kg. same deal for the length im guessing.
maybe you can ask them to clarify the resopnse they gave you as it would be totally impossible to find a 6.668 kg yellowfin that measures 90 cm. |
